Good Lacrosse Players Locally SOME PLAYERS HAVE LEFT HERE--NEWCOMERS ARR RAID TO BR HERE, HOW Aithough it is rumored that Surles | will play lacrosse in Brampton this year and that Orville Gaunton intends to take up residence near Newmarket, prospects for Oshawa having a good strong team are exceedingly bright. McKinnon, another member of last year's team, has left Oshawa, but much new material is sald to be available. Those at the head of lacrosse here are not worrying over the calibre of the team they can uce but are doubt- ful as to wh they can secure suficient accommodation to stage their games at the Park this year, Organization for the season has not been 'attempted as yet, although there has been some talk of their wishing to operate under the auspices of an athletic association which 1s con- sidered to be a wise plan, With the O.A.L.A. annual convention only -three weeks away, it is probable something be done soon to get the organiza on under way. FOOTBALL TEAM IS "HOLDING A PRACTICE! The Oshawa Football team, which plays its first game of the season a week from today in "Toronto against Telters, another second division team in'the Toronto and District As- sociation, are working bard to get into proper. condition. from working out on the Y.M.C.A. gym. twice a wek they will play a practice game this afternoon with the Ontario County Regiment, which team has been entered in the Oshawa and District Association.

Locklear is well known for his daredevil stunts in the air, and Miss McAllister is equally famed for her daring wutomobile stunts. Crowds have gasped at her daring, but she evidently places implicit conf): dence in her Oldsmobile ns she almost flies along at breakneck speed, paying little heed to obstacles that ordinarily disconcert the most daring of motorists, The fact that she drives a machine of which she is confident has done much to earn for her the record she enjoys as one of the world's most daring motorists, ' ' A Uniform System of Municipal Bookkeeping Needed In This Countr A) (Continued from page 3) SCHEDULE NO. 1 How Tax Charges Are Made Up Tax Levy Basis of Assessment in mills Land Improvements 233 100 106 301, 100 106 3.50 160 66 2-3 281, 1040 je 331, iu on 4 100 100 0.90 160 60 SCHEDULE NO, 2 Where a Lot of Your Taxes Go Next comes a comparative statement showing where some of the tax-money goes, schedule number (wo.

However, now that the club has been accepted it is purely a matter for the executive to decide. The Port Hope Guide voices its objection in this manner: .- . "Although the admission of the team did not meet with our approval still we accepted the ruling of the majority and refrained from making any comment in the press, Now how- ever, that the subject has been open- ed up again by the Leaside team we feel that a few remarks would not be out of order. In the first place the trips to Toronto will prove ex- pensive to all the teams with the exception of Oshawa. Leaside are in a much better position to secure ball players than the smaller places in the league and there is the danger that the other teams might be out- it would be a difficult matter to keep a check on the team and the residence rule ir particular might be violated time and time again without the knowl- ! edge of the Central League Execu- | ive. But there is one outstanding reason why the Leaside reques. most serious consid eration before being passed upon. Sporting teams in this district have heen obliged to contend with Toron- to teams in hockey and other sports and te be gauite outspoken on the subject you generaily find the Toron- ' PAGE FIVE to teams looking for the big end of the deal and invariably getting it, In the Central League we are just like one big happy. family, every team knowing practically what his neighbor was doing. While there was keen rivalry in the games there was also that friendly feeling among all the teams and when Oshawa as winners of the Central League were called upon to play Hillerests of To- ronto last year, every town in the league sent along a large deputation to cheer for the Oshawa boys, Bup- pose Leaside should win the Central League this year how many from this district would take in the play- off? If conditions are as Mr. Pea- cock represents them in his letter this morning, then we think his team should be entered in the Toron- to section. Mr, Peacock was al- ways a good booster for the Central League and while we would like to have him associated with 'ps again this year still the interests of the league must come before any per- sonal friendship. To our mind the League would be well advised to "Leave Well Enough Aldpe." - : SIR LOMER GOUIN Ottawa Journal: --His speech, ab- le, clever, and abundantly shrewd, yet defeated its own ends. It was designed to show that Sir Lomer was not !"Master of the Administr- tion;" its ability but emphsized that belief. "Where MacGregor sits is the head of the table." Where sits a man who can make such a spéech as Sir Lomer made on Thursday is the head of the Liberal party. MAKING SPEECH VISIBLE A wonderfu) new invention called the Lioretgraph enables one to make accurate tracings upon permanent records of actual vibrations of sounds in articulated speech. The instrument is worked by motor power. When a vowel sonnd is ut- tered the room becomes full of vi- brations, and each different sound gives vibrations of a different shape. In the presence of the Lioretgraph a person saying "Ah" would record upon paper a wobbly, symmetrical line. The principle involved is sim- ilar to that of the phonograph, but, by means of delicate mechanism, the affects of speech are enlarged an en- ormous number of times. It is be- lieved that with this new invention, aided by mathematical formulae al- ready in use, it will be possible ul- timately to read and translate any ioreign or unknown tongue of which these lines are thé record.
